LOL!!


Hey TK....

Yip, RWD mate, all there V8 and V6 range are RWD.
Burnouts are simple, almost to easy. It has a traction control button that is fantastic....
Runs great, VERY smooth. 1/4 mile is about 14 flat and it does 0-60mph in 6 seconds. Not bad for a car that weighs 1750kgs!!!!

These are family sports sedans.

Nice car NZ!

Too bad they don't have that car in the states!  Very sleek looking!  Stealthy!

Is that car related some how to old Mad Max car, was it the Ford XB or XA? But in a 4 door fashion?

Hope your online business does well!

The black on black interceptor was a standard 1973 XB GT Ford Falcon Coupe.

Max's yellow interceptor was a Ford Falcon XB sedan, 351 V8 engine, probably a 1974 model (ex victoria police car).

The big bopper (Roop & Charlie) was a Ford Falcon XB sedan, with a V8 302 motor (ex victoria police car).

The march hare (sarse & scuttle) was a Ford Falcon XA sedan, 6 cylinder, probably a 1972 model (ex taxi)

Thanks for the info, andrew!  I love that movie and those cars!  I had always hoped for models/die cast to come out of those cars but they never did in the States.

I dont know what they say it is, but, from what I can tell, the motor in the mad max car, is a Oldsmobiile.

LOL! Cooool smilies cudahob, espeacially the one hitting the window. Right hand drive makes more sense, smokers don't smoke with their left hand they smoke with their right so it's easy to flick ash. When driving the Challenger I have to reach arcoss my chest and just get it out the window. Either that or I smoke like a kook with my left hand. lol Anyhow 1/2 the world drive one side the other half driver properly. lol


Great photo Andrew.


Thanks SC73. :-)
